Note to Schindlers: Playing with fire gets you burned.

Check this out. Apparently there may be a *money* rift at the basis of all this hooplah.

The situation seems pretty plausible to me. The kind of fun Bobby Schindler is having with this tragedy really doesn't seem to be in line with the grave nature of the situation.

It was shocking to hear him say, "You don't speak for us" to the crowd. What a schmuck! I'm sorry, but he and his parents deserve every bit of grief they get as a result of their efforts to whip up the frenzy around their court case.

Imagine the mindset of the folks outside the hospice. At the request of the Schindlers and the nutzo right-wing activists they've cuddled up to, dozens of people have come from out-of-state to spend day-after-day camping out to protest. Then, as they realize they can't get their way, the Schindlers say, "Go home." The Schindlers haven't realized yet that it isn't about them and how they feel anymore. To think that the very people they've incited to bash down the gates of the keep could be pulled back with the battering ram in their hands is laughable.

Sit back and enjoy the fireworks folks. It's still only beginning. When Terri dies, the powderkeg blows.

If you play with fire...
